Co-Tee TV Episode 69: Space Pandas, Stay Vocal and Recycling

In this episode of Co-Tee TV I wear The Motive by Heiko Windisch for ThreadlessÂ andÂ review ReUse Cereal by Stay Vocal, a Green America certified ReUse apparel company that was founded by Alex Eaves. Stay Vocal takes unused new products, that are ready to be destroyed, and transforms them into brand new products.

Coty’s Thoughts:

ReUse Cereal by Stay Vocal.Pros: Everything about this T-Shirt is recycled, from the packaging to the plastic wrap and the actual T-Shirt itself! T-Shirt is limited to a print of 311. Great idea and the concept will most likely appeal to those who are highly active in the “green” movement and take the mantra “reduce, reuse and recycle” to heart. Stay Vocal was a Top 10 nominee for Green America’s business of the year for 2009. Rest assured that you are making a difference by purchasing a tee from Stay Vocal.Â Cons: Design is printed on the reverse of the shirt so when you wear it, the neck label is visible (yes, you can easily snip it off) as well as the inside seams of the T-Shirt. Print is a bit thick, especially since it is printed on top of the existing original print. I can definitely appreciate the idea behind Stay Vocal but I am unsure if it appeals to me in such a way that I would become a regular customer. Price: $15.

The Motive by Heiko Windisch for Threadless. Crazy looking spacesuit operated by two pandas will appeal to almost anyone who enjoys cute things. Unfortunately it is no longer in stock.Price: $12.
